  1. What kind of plugin do you use to show before and after pict in the same frame… 😀
    I really loves you tutorial…

  2. This stops working at 4:22. Control, command, click onto any channel panel to highlight doesn’t happen. Do you leave something out or is it me. Thanks

    1. No. I just watched it. If you hold Ctrl (Mac: Command) and click on any of the channel thumbnails you should be able to make a selection out of the light pixels.

  3. As with all the others, this was an amazing tutorial! I seem to find so many hidden tips in these that bleed over into my work flow for other projects, like making the Snow brush, which helps with so many other brush constructions. Also like using the density slider for the mask. I have always just used the brush opacity. While this works it is not too accurate. Using the Gradient Overlay in the Layer Styles is a much better option than using a Gradient Adjustment layer for each area too. I appreciate all the details so much. I saved this tutorial to watch when I needed to change an image to a snow scene and find so many other uses for it. This was an especially good one!
    Thank you!
